At the Rasa chain of restaurants, the food is inspired by the authentic home cooking of beautiful, spice-rich Kerala. A cosy, upmarket restaurant that specialises in South Indian food, Rasa W1 began life as a vegetarian restaurant but recently the menu was expanded to include a meat-based section inspired by the cuisine of Northern Kerala. Rasa is a Sanskrit word, meaning all sorts of things including taste, pleasure, delight, charm and essence – Rasa promise to deliver all this and more. The Sunday Times Style Magazine was moved to offer this glowing recommendation of the restaurant, claiming that "the food is nothing short of celestial". High praise indeed.

Launching in mid June, Bouillabaisse will bring coastal cuisine to Mayfair with some of the freshest and most sustainable fish and seafood in the UK.
Bouillabaisse has been inspired by first hand conversations with fishing communities around the globe. Founder Kurt Zdesar, who launched Chotto Matte in Soho in 2014 and brought Nobu to London as Director for Operations, has distilled the very best of his extensive travel to coastal communities.
From sun-drenched lunches in small fishing villages near Venice to encounters with day-boat fisherman in Greece and Spain as well as the UK, Kurt and his team were determined to combine these sustainable fishing practices and bring them to London’s restaurant heartland.
The menu, created by group Executive Chef Jordan Sclare, most recently of Chotto Matte and previously with Nobu London and Restaurant Gordon Ramsay, combines traditional and contemporary coastal cooking techniques whilst ensure the fish and seafood is central to each dis

Norwegian red king crab and hand selected Angus beef are the mainstay of the menu at this steak and crab restaurant in Marylebone from the group behind the Goodman steak restaurants and Burger and Lobster. Beast serves a three-course set menu with a surf 'n' turf main course consisting of King crab from the Arctic Circle, and American beef steaks. It costs a steep £75 a head (without booze) and there are no substitutions or 'off menu' ordering. But once you've digested and accepted that rather hefty price tag you'll soon get in the spirt of things. According to GQ magazine, "within half an hour you'll be wearing a special bib, spattered in crab juice and won't be able to hear each other above the roar."

Tables are hard to come by at Anthony Demetre's Michelin-starred contemporary restaurant, and it's easy to see why. In the reliable hands of head chef Colin Kelly, the food is exceptional, and consistently so, but the afters are where they excel. Desserts are as sweet as the restaurant's name suggests - the ingredient it's named after is put into practice in dishes like the Wild Honey ice cream with honeycomb. A sticky but not sickly way to follow the belly pork or the mackerel tartar. The narrow oak-panelled room marries the antique formality of a gentleman's club to subtly contemporary design, and it makes for an entirely civilised setting. And, for somewhere this good, in such an exclusive neighbourhood, it's a pleasant surprise to learn that the prices won't leave you smarting (the superb wine list is particularly sensibly priced).
